When the kernel is working well and we want to restart cleanly
kernel_restart is the function to use.   But in many instances
the kernel wants to reboot when thing are expected to be working
very badly such as from panic or a software watchdog handler.

This patch adds the function emergency_restart() so that
callers can be clear what semantics they expect when calling
restart.  emergency_restart() is expected to be callable
from interrupt context and possibly reliable in even more
trying circumstances.

This is an initial generic implementation for all architectures.
